Mine is manual, but point is noted I have observed the shit being revved out of cars on more than one occassion at Club Motors Randburg, both times I was in the workshop and the techy who was replacing my cluster made a comment " he overevved that engine with a smirk" Or ya it is in also for a special bulletin camshaft recall lol and this also on my "new" engine.
My car I hope is sorted because the 316 i loaner is performing better than my my 320i and the nerve off the techy to tell me that he feels the power is adequate when he took for test drive. Putting it in sport mode no longer even gives it a sports tone leave alone giving you a slight kick in the seat.
lol this is an old thread but anyways let me comment where my car is now. It is back at the dealer. The engine was replaced due to faulty oil pump and the diff not sure why diff was replaced. I took delivery of the car only to find the oil heat gauge playing ping pong and sending mixed signals to the OBD causing the car to overfuel. I am told by BMW that when the engine is transported they fit the oil pressure sensor and sometimes these things get damaged or are faulty so my car is there to sort that as well as the needles gremlin where when you switch on the ignition the needles flicker. The headlight washers were not working from day one and I ask to be refunded the R2500 that I paid for them but no luck seems they are going to try and resolve.
